Yes, you are allowed to rush even if you are married and have children and it isn't just for first year students. Any undergraduate student can rush.

However... keep in mind that recruitment will be different for you, and your outcome will probably have a lot to do with where you go to school and the campus culture.
At some schools, being married with kids might not be a problem. There was a member of my chapter in the exact same position as you (married, 2 kids, 24-years-old) and she joined and contributed A LOT to the chapter... so much so that the other sisters sometimes forgot she had such a busy life outside of being Greek. But I also didn't go to a school with a competitive recruitment, where it's unlikely that an upperclassmen will get a bid. Therefore, the sisters were more willing to consider her for membership.
Also, keep the time commitment in mind! Because it can be a huge one.
You might want to analyze the full scope of the situation before you dive right in.
